Just catching up on the C4 highlights now. How Piastri got that stopped and didn't end up down the run off. Proper move that one.

That guy has got what it takes to be champion, there's no doubt about it.

Verstappen gets community service for the terrible crime of..... swearing in a press conference.

As it gets closer to the end just have a feeling that position switch in Hungary could cost him the individual title.

I think Lando has a real chance now. Especially at one of the sprint weekends, if Verstappen can only manage 5/6 and Lando sweeps then he could gain 20+ points on him.

The decision not to use team orders earlier is looking rather stupid now though.

Or even deliberate?

always amazes me how many teams try and get away with things. Multiple times a season teams have to change things (which the FIA /F1 have missed or weren't declared in the car's design submitted to FIA)

Thus it ever was, in fairness. Teams have always tried to push the boundaries of legality. It's just that bit harder to get away with anything these days with all the cameras and sensors, and the media and press cover so much more of it across social media now.

I'm actually intrigued what innovations have been used in the past that we DON'T know about, and quite possibly never will for one reason or another. I'm absolutely sure there's a black archive of innovations that teams have stored away.

Make it simple. If at any point an undeclared part or device is found then all points gained that season are null and void, Wouldn't be worth them doing it.

Should’ve closed the door but Max forced him off imo- not sure why the rules are completely different on lap 1 vs the rest of the race.

What is this Stewarding? Albon shoves Magnussen off the track, nothing. Russell does the same to Bottas earlier on, 5 second penalty.

Any chance we could have some consistency, please?

Bullshit penalty.

I note there's a certain Derek Warwick among the stewards.

Which means I'll guarantee now. If that had been the other way around, Max wouldn't get a penalty at all. Funny how whenever anything happens with Max, and Derek Warwick is among the Stewards, it always works out peachy in Max's favour.

Max is very much like Senna. Win at any cost. People romance about Senna but ultimiaily he would do the same as max look for any little advantage and exploit rules/regulations to win.

Norris needs toughen up and get more street wise.
